My sense is that this has been resolved long ago. Correctness is not 
negotiable. JDOM will verify. An exception may be made for SAXBuilder 
if we can figure out how to do that without opening holes in the 
verification system for other, non-parsed cases.

If you have reproducible benchmarks that demonstrate how verification 
is hurting you, we'd be interested in seeing them. That might help us 
look for optimization opportunities in the Verifier class that do not 
affect its fundamental correctness.
